Support remote unix socket forwarding
OpenSSH >= 6.7 can use Unix domain socket forwarding
That means the reverse tunnel endpoint will be an UNIX listening socket instead of a traditional TCP listening socket.
For shared systems this can provide a more secure remote endpoint than a TCP socket.
Who can provide some pseudo-code for this feature? Does anyone have any idea about how to implement it?
I would like to have this feature, too. The use case is: forwarding of UNIX socket of Docker daemon to a local socket.
I think this might depend on paramiko adding a feature (https://github.com/paramiko/paramiko/issues/544) before it's possible in sshtunnel.
